Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3156679A1] A shaft coupling mechanism 1 for an electric power steering apparatus includes a coupling base body 3 coupled to a rotating shaft 2; a coupling base body 5 coupled to a rotating shaft 4; a rotation transmitting member 8 constituted by a pair of rigid rotation transmitting members 6 and 7 disposed between the rotating shaft 2 and the rotating shaft 4 through both coupling base bodies 3 and 5 and adapted to transmit the rotation of the rotating shaft 2 in an R direction about an axis O to the rotating shaft 4; an elastic member 9 interposed between the rotation transmitting members 6 and 7 and coupled to the rotation transmitting members 6 and 7 in such a manner as to be axially superposed on the rotation transmitting members 6 and 7; and a coupling means 10 for coupling the pair of rotation transmitting members 6 and 7 to each other.
